Security Engineering: Safety Starts with the Design

Security Engineering is more than just reacting to threats - it is the proactive planning, development and implementation of secure systems. The focus hereby lies not solely on individual protective measures, but on architectures, processes, and technologies that address security requirements holistically. The goal is to protect digital assets and data throughout the entire lifecycle of a system.

Why Security Engineering is Business-Critical Today

Digital systems are an integral part of almost all business processes – and at the same time, the attack surface is growing due to cloud computing, IoT, remote work, and continuous integration. Security engineering provides the foundation for robust and resilient infrastructures.

  • Security at the system level: Isolated measures are no longer sufficient. What is needed is an engineering approach that incorporates security requirements at the architectural and code levels from the start.
  • Attacker modeling & risk assessment: To build secure systems, one must first understand the attackers. Threat modeling, risk analyses, and security requirements engineering are essential components of every robust solution.

  • Compliance is not an end in itself: GDPR, ISO 27001, NIS2 – regulatory requirements demand traceability and technical safeguards. Security engineering ensures that compliance is not only documented but also technically implemented.

  • Security by design & by default: Security features must not only be available but also enabled by default and fully integrated into operations. This begins with requirements engineering and does not end with deployment.

  • Cost control through prevention: Vulnerabilities identified early are significantly cheaper to fix than dealing with security incidents during live operation or after a breach.

Our approach: Integration instead of retrofitting

Whether cloud-native applications, embedded systems, or legacy modernization – security engineering ensures that security is not an after-the-fact patch but an integral part of the system architecture. From secure software development lifecycles (SSDLC) to automated security testing and the systematic protection of interfaces and data flows.

 

Our Services ‒ Your Advantages

WAF Security (test & implementation)

We test how effectively your Web Application Firewall (WAF) is configured, identify potential vulnerabilities, and optimize its setup. We are also happy to take over the implementation of a WAF tailored to your needs and those of your applications.

Hardening Consulting

We provide consulting on systematic hardening based on CIS Benchmarks and support the integration of SIEM and other solutions to monitor security-relevant assets, detect configuration deviations, and ensure continuous compliance.

Security Audit

We conduct a security audit (gap analysis) and provide you with a clear overview of your current security posture based on applicable standards, frameworks, and best practices ‒ covering cloud, network, infrastructure, applications, and more. The audit report includes targeted recommendations for action.

Web Application

From an external perspective, we assess the configuration of the server and the application. Based on proven security standards such as OWASP and CIS, we harden the web application, derive appropriate security measures, and implement them — with a focus on configurations and security headers to prevent unauthorized access.

Cloud Security

We secure cloud environments through EC2 hardening, strong IAM policies, encryption of data at rest and in transit, backups, and continuous monitoring with structured logs. This ensures availability, integrity, and confidentiality.
